Overview

Comfortable Northcote period home with incredible potential

Cherished by the same family for over 60 years, this freestanding period home is ready for its next chapter. Occupying approximately 482sqm in Northcote's prized Ruckers Hill precinct, strolling distance to vibrant High Street, it presents a rare opportunity to renovate/extend over time and establish an enviable inner-city lifestyle, or develop and capitalise on the superb location (Subject to Council Approval). Abundant with warmth and heritage elegance, the substantial existing residence offers liveable light-filled interiors plus a north-to-rear aspect and off-street parking with ROW access for multiple cars. Beyond its 12m frontage and charming weatherboard façade, the stained glass entrance reveals a wide hallway graced with 12ft decorative ceilings. From here, original wide skirtings and sash windows flow throughout the front of the home. At its heart is a huge living room that flaunts magnificent pressed metal ceilings and a gas fireplace within a timber mantel. Nearby are three king sized bedrooms beneath 10ft ornate ceilings (all have built-in robes and two have glorious leadlight windows), serviced by a neat terrazzo bathroom with a bath, shower and separate w/c. At the back sits a generous functional kitchen with gas cooking, an integrated meals area and fixed cabinetry providing ample storage. Accommodation is complemented by a sunny patio, large low maintenance backyard and dedicated veggie patch with excellent soil, as well as an automatic single garage with a workshop and off-street parking for at least two more cars, all easily accessed via the rear lane. Secured by 7ft Colorbond fencing and 7ft lockable side and back gates, this property features a good-sized separate laundry, split system air-conditioning, Rinnai gas heating and external lighting. Set in a neighbourly Northcote locale, it is positioned close to cafes, boutiques and restaurants, plus trendy Westgarth Village, Northcote Plaza, Northcote Aquatic Centre, CBD trams, two train stations, Johnson Park and Merri Creek Trail. It is also zoned to Westgarth Primary School and Northcote High School, and placed moments from Santa Maria College and St Joseph's Primary School.
